Paul Buhle, Marxism in the United States
The central social context of contemporary Marxism in the United States — the universities of the 70s and 80s — has made possible a hitherto unimaginable quantity of research and of specific discussions in a multitude of areas. But this same context has rendered the meaning and importance of the ideas almost incomprehensible outside of a circle of specialists. Outside the university, one of the most important phenomena has been the development of Liberation Theology, which combines the anti-capitalist religious tradition with Marxist ideas.
Taking as their point of departure the pioneering works of Harry Braverman and Immanuel Wallerstein, a series of radical scholars influenced by Marxism have produced studies in the areas of political economy, sociology and history. Particularly important has been the research on the history of blacks (Genovese, Harding, Marable) and of women (Joan Kelly). Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
